Write his code and you can reduce his frustration for a day, but
teach him to program and you'll frustrate him for life.

That's not entirely fair. I would have said his usort() suggestion was
a better pointer than a link to count() - which gives no hint as to
how to sort the list, which is after all what the OP's trying to do.
ObSuggestion:
function byLength($a, $b)
{
return sizeof($a) - sizeof($b);
}

If you say so. In that case, jblanchard, I apologize for my outburst.

Apology accepted. Look, several of us have been on this list for years
and have helped several others through their issues. Mailing lists like
this (try a C++ newsgroup for example) are much more merciless than so

Hi,
How can I sort a 2 dimensional array by number of
elements?
Ex:
rgArray[0] = ("1","2");
rgArray[1] = ("1");
rgArray[2] = ("1","2","3","4");
rgArray[3] = ("1","2","3");
Now I would like to sort it so I can loop through
them from least elements to most (or vice versa):
rgArray[1] (
Thanks for the example using array_multisort. I'd been wondering how I
could use that function to do what I want. It looks like it's more flexible
in the long run, but I was able to use Paul's recommendation to do what I
want. Here's the code I ended up using:
function cmp ($a, $b) {
return
Sorry for the empty reply (miss slide of the finger on my touch pad).
You can use array_multisort(); The code would look something like
this, remember, this is untested code so be warned before any flaming
is done:
//CODE
//You need to restructure your array like this:
$menu["ID"][1] = 5;

uasort() is what you need here.
Also see the usort()
Any ideas on how I could sort this array by Title?
$menu[1]["ID"] = 5;
$menu[1]["Title"] = "Test 1";
$menu[2]["ID"] = 3;
$menu[2]["Title"] = "Test 4";
$menu[3]["ID"] = 56;
$menu[3]["Title"] = "Test 8";
$menu[4]["ID"] = 44;
$menu[4]["Title"] = "Test 3";
Thanks,

Hi,
I cannot figure this out... Need some assistance.
I have an array:
$jack[#] = array(
"loan_info" => 101,
"first_name" => jack,
"last_name" => mother
);
# = 0 thru 12
I want to sort the array by

hi all,
for those of you interested:
uasort($this->modules[$group], array(&$this,'_ary_sort'));
note the &$this... this is a very good point, if you use $this, a new
instance of your class is created just to han

hi all,
I'm trying to do an array sort that takes:
$test = array(
array( // this is $test[0].
string => "this is the second",
num => 2
),
array( // this is $test[1].
string=> "this is the first",
num => 1
),
heh, sounds fun. Oh well Thanks

Currently I am using the sort() command to sort an array. Unfortunately it uses the
ascii number so all words starting with uppercase are before lowercase. Is there a
case insensitive alphabetical sort that I don't know of? Thanks in advance ^_^
